[QUOTE="A_HRD, post: 3500, member: 49"] [b]Miller D6 Dynamo[/b] For what its worth, I've ridden my Vins a few hundred thousand miles over the past 40 years; and never used anything other than Miller D6 dynamos in the charging department. So I'm with Len on this one. It wouldn't be true to say that I've never had problems, but its never been enough for me to want to change my dynamo preference. PROPERLY restored, and not overloaded electrically, the Miller D6 is quite a robust instrument. Although there have been some bad batches of replacement armatures around over the years. Caveat Emptor. My trick is to do winter maintenance. Year 1 is the dynamo; strip, clean and rebuild carefully. Year 2 is the magneto - same thing. Then repeat for the next 40 years. It seems to work for me... Peter Barker Bristol, UK [/QUOTE]
